Just a point of fact here for me...

I'm not running nVidia drivers on my F16 laptop. It's a Lenovo T400 with
Intel / ATI combo Graphics. I'm using the built-in OpenSources drivers
that come in the box with F16. Regardless of which mode I use (Intel or
ATI graphics), the same general instability issues I noted before are
clearly present.

This is not just an nVidia problem. Although, I would also point out
that the Nouveau drivers were impressively unstable on my Mom's computer
with an nVidia card. It was only after using the proprietary nVidia
drivers from RPM Fusion - and doing 2 attempts - that her video started
to stabilize.

She still also sees general instability with Gnome Shell, etc.
